CopyCat Del Taco Chicken Tacos

Living in Arizona for 13 years of my adolescent life I grew up loving Del Taco. My parents would get take out there often. My sister, Michelle, that was her favorite taco out. If we did take out one night, Michelle always wanted Del Taco over anything else. She loves the chicken tacos. Now that I live in Ohio, Del Taco is not really out here. I have found 1 or 2 but they are some distance away from us. So, I decided to try and make that for my Sunday Family Movie night pick. Tonight, is my pick and I drew Mexican food so why not give it a try.  Marinade: 3 Large Chicken (I used thin chicken breast), diced 1 Lime, juiced 1 tbsp Taco Seasoning  1 tbsp Soy Sauce 1 tsp Garlic Powder 1 tsp Onion Powder 1 tsp Chicken Bouillon Powder 1/4 tsp Paprika Place all ingredients above into a ziplock, shake well and marinade for 30 minutes to an hour. I found the longer the better flavor.  White Sauce: 1 cup Mayo 1 Lime, juiced Whisk together in a bowl until smooth, set aside until ready for assembly.

Crockpot Hot Chocolate

The BEST hot chocolate I have ever had or made! This hot chocolate has become a VERY traditional drink around the holidays and winter time. We find that we have to make sure to have the ingredients on hand and ready for whenever we want hot cocoa and boy it does not disappoint. Winter this year has been absolutely horrible here in Ohio, not to sure why but oooo I am over it. Needless to say my crockpot has been getting a workout with hot chocolate and apple cider. I keep telling myself, it is almost over, you can make it through the -2 degree weather! But it is very hard to do since it never gets this cold here; in the 6 years I lived here it has never been this cold.
                   
You Will Need:
Homemade Marshmallows
6 Cups Milk
14 oz. Homemade Sweetened Condensed Milk
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 Cup Heavy Cream
2 Cups Chocolate Chips
Add milk, heavy cream and vanilla to the crockpot. Add chocolate chips. Add condensed milk. Cook on low for 2 hours, stirring often. Before serving whisk well to break up any chunks of chocolate
Enjoy this yummy-ness! (I put caramel around my husbands cup inside, added marshmallows then the cocoa. Topped it with Chocolate Glazed Donut from Flavor God. He said it is the best hot cocoa he has ever had. Let me know what y'all think!
